We went to Belek for a standard week from 11 to 18 June 2009 as a family of three with a guy of 4 years old. Rested in Turkey for the 4th time. Hotel Ela Quality is one of the best. It has everything you need for a good rest.
By and large, there is nothing to complain about, except perhaps for a rather unobtrusive animation (we ourselves had to be interested in what and when, especially the people
convened; if you are capable of self-organization, then you will not be hooked).
In this regard, it is boring and uninteresting due to the lack of inspiration to write a review about an unshadowed vacation. It only remains to narrate mournfully, praising the advantages of living in El : ).
We went through the turtes. We were met at the Airport in a Mercedes, we were alone in the cabin, although we did not order an individual transfer : ) We arrived in 15 minutes.

Modern hotel with sparkling marble floors and gilded columns at the reception. Decent decor both in the rooms and throughout the hotel. Cozy bars and restaurants, leather upholstered furniture.
Cleaning is perfect. Sterile cleanliness of shared toilets, showers, changing rooms. Public toilets are simply luxurious : )
I liked the bar in the foyer - there is live music all the time. Harp in the lobby in the morning, piano in the lobby in the evening.
Wristbands in Belek are not issued to vacationers. Children from 4 to 7 years old have personal check-in and check-out.
We took a room with a garden view. This year we decided not to pay extra for a sea view, because. there are no rooms facing a noisy road or neighboring hotels.
The view was really thick trees, mountains in the distance, and even a piece of the sea is visible. But peace and quiet, because. sea ​ ​ view = view of the pools and music in the evenings.
Standard room is large and cozy with the ability to turn on the light in different corners of the room, including on the balcony. The rooms have new bathrobes, slippers (packed) for the whole family, incl. and for children, in the bathroom shower gel, shampoo, soap, bath foam, bath accessories, make-up mirror, hair dryer. AT
minibar 2 cans of beer, 4 cans of different cocacola, sprite, 2 sparkling water and 2 non-carbonated water. Everything in the room is new, the interior is well thought out, there is a 32" LSD TV, Internet access is free (Wi-Fi). Children are given a Mishka on the bed as a gift. A children's pot in the shape of a typewriter. The climate system is perfectly and silently working.
True, upon arrival, without knocking, the head of the servants came into our room, and the second time - the "minibar", without waiting for someone to come to the door, opening the door with their key. From which they concluded that it was impossible to see through the door whether there was someone in the room. Therefore, when you are in a room, hang a "do not disturb" sign, or press the button under the doorknob. Then no one can use the key card to open the front door.

Cleaning is regular. What is surprising: we haphazardly went to the beach, so I can say with confidence that they clean it exactly when you are not there (in the early morning, at lunchtime, in the afternoon, and even in the evening - earlier, as a rule, they cleaned it during the day when the child was sleeping - not convenient ). They sometimes left a dollar for tea.
The child had a birthday. Decorated the room - roses on the bed and even in the bathroom. They brought a small cake - a gift from the hotel - champagne and chocolate. The waiter sang "Happy idle" : )
Television broadcasts 5 children's channels. One Russian-speaking with cartoons around the clock.
The rooms did not disappoint, the territory surprised: a palette of various colors, gardens, birds sing, clean lawns, a good water park.
The hotel has 4 large swimming pools, many fountains and decorative ponds. Needless to say - landscape designers did their best. By the sea at any time it was possible to find a sunbed, by the pools when it was, we always found it. Needless to say, the perfect cleanliness, beauty of the surrounding space and order, which can be observed in the hotel everywhere. We swam in the pool - no one got sick.
Chaise lounges are modern, with mesh, not plastic. They don't need mattresses.
The beach is private, sandy. It has one pier, where there is a bar, also sun loungers and pillows, for a cat. you can also sunbathe. 4 rows of sunbeds and the length of the beach is 300 meters, quite wide. The entrance to the sea is gentle, the depth starts about 2 meters from the shore, there is a small area of ​ ​ small pebbles along the entire beach, it stretches in a narrow strip (as everywhere in Belek), there is a lifeguard booth, there are changing cabins and a shower on the beach, there is a toilet nearby .
Beach towels are issued free of charge in a special gazebo on the way to the beach and near the pool in exchange for a card.
On the beach - reed umbrellas over sun loungers, which makes it more comfortable than the neighboring beaches of Susesi and Cornelia Diamond hotels! The sea is clean and salty : )
A lot of staff started up for the improvement and cleaning of the territory, cat. done at night and early in the morning.

For outdoor enthusiasts - exercises (on land and in water), volleyball, water polo, football (a good field, do not forget to bring sneakers), water basketball, tennis, a catamaran. Rest water sports on the beach for a fee. From other entertainment: Segway rental (electric scooter), Art Cafe (you can
spend many hours there, painting and doing various crafts).
Rest, mostly young couples with children. There are also older people. But they are few. The main contingent of tourists is Russians (70%). The rest of the composition is Kazakhs (15%), Ukrainians, Poles (5%), Turks (5%) and Europeans (5%). The audience is great. Some Russians are completely Europeanized, I sometimes confused them with German couples : )
There are a lot of people, but this is not felt due to the well-planned territory, there are many places to sit.
By the way, no mosquitoes!
The hotel staff left a good impression.
The staff clearly values ​ ​ their place: literally everyone, without exception, is courteous, friendly, tidy, neat and professionally trained. Service without complaints. Some of the waiters remembered immediately what drinks we were drinking, and they also brought them without delay. The waiters immediately cleaned up after those who ate and re-layed the tablecloths for new visitors - they are always clean, the cutlery is always arranged. The dishes are well washed. There are child seats.
The food, as in all decent Turkish hotels, is varied and tasty. Meat: lamb, beef, chicken. Fish, including salmon, in different versions (fried, salted, smoked). Every evening, a roasted whole turkey, duck, fish or ram was butchered. Grilled fish and meat of various kinds, marinated, smoked fish, large shrimp or small salad, sushi, lamb ribs, veal, steaks, kebabs - all this took place. There were also enough side dishes for salads, sauces, dressings, spices and seasonings. All day 3 kinds of soups. We were pleased with the heaps of strawberries, as well as kiwi, which were not translated; pineapples, apricots, grapes appeared periodically, there were also cherries and peaches, this is not counting the more traditional fruits for this time. The main restaurant has a children's menu and meals, there are 2 types of cereals. Always back to normal

the morning Turkish choice included a dietary table, honeycombs, 3 types of Turkish delight, many different cheeses, including blue mold. I will not even mention the mass of all kinds of pastries, jams, yogurts. Orange juice for breakfast.
All alcoholic drinks are accompanied by a suitable snack in the bars. The waiters themselves offered drinks and brought them quickly enough, the empty dishes were also taken away in a timely manner. Near each pool there is a bar, where a different menu is everywhere.
Ice cream, cookies in the pastry shop - after dinner and cotton candy. Well, as usual, pizza, fast food, delicious tortillas with cheese or meat, baked potatoes, cocktails, beer, hot drinks and fruits in the bars on site.
They feed non-stop: from 7 am until late in the evening, and at night free room service : ).
Reservation A la carte - 6 euros, and there everything is free. Made, I think, so that there were no queues.
Of course, a big emphasis in the hotel on children's recreation: a large and diverse miniclub, slides, trampolines, a complex for climbing and shooting balls, small cinemas, a children's disco, performances with the participation of kids and much, much more. Animation in Russian. Trampolines available almost all day, mini-golf, rides (the latter for a fee). On TV on channels 54-59 you can watch what is happening in the kids club.
Very beautiful and unusual interior, pleasant atmosphere. You can safely come with a book and relax on the beds located in the adjoining rest rooms. I saw how children were laid on them for daytime sleep. The elevator from the spa went straight up to the floor to our door, which was very convenient.
Next to the SPA area there is a modern gym, a tennis table (there are also ping-pong tables near the pools). Indoor pool next to the gym, very convenient!
In a word, the hotel is worth the money and corresponds to the declared 5 stars.
